N2 - My studies of leadership build on the work of Sigmund Freud, Erich Fromm, and Erik Erikson. Those psychoanalysts described leaders of large groups, their personalities and relations with their followers. In my studies of leaders and experience with them, I have found that leadership is a relationship in a particular context. There are different kinds of leaders, and someone can be a leader in one context, but not in another. Furthermore, different leadership roles and different cultures call for different personality types and leadership behavior. People follow leaders for different reasons, and leaders can influence why and how they are followed. While Freud, Fromm, and Erikson only described male leaders, women are increasingly filling leadership roles, sometimes more effectively than men.

N2 - Mainstream social science has been blindsided by the rise of Trumpism and broader growth of authoritarian populism. We make the case that Frommian work is desperately needed inside the core of contemporary social science theorizing by examining social character theory up against and alongside the concept of habitus developed by French sociologist Pierre Bourdieu. Both Fromm and Bourdieu were concerned with the human costs of social change and economic development, Fromm with his writings on advanced capitalism in The Sane Society (1955a) and on Mexican village life in Social Character in a Mexican Village (with Michael Maccoby, 1970b), and Bourdieu with his extended studies of peasants in Algeria during the French colonial war of the 1950s and early 1960s. We will compare and contrast the theory of social character developed in the Mexican study with Bourdieu's concept of habitus, and discuss what Fromm's ideas can add to Bourdieu-influenced critical social science.

Funk y N. McLaughlin (Eds.), Hacia una ciencia humana. La relevancia de Erich Fromm en la actualidad, México (Demac), pp. 047-074. N2 - Las aportaciones científicas de Erich Fromm se basaron en su teoría del carácter social y los métodos que él desarrolló para ponerla a prueba. El carácter social describe las actitudes emocionales bien enraizadas en personas criadas en una misma cultura. La familia, la escolaridad, el trabajo y el juego conforman el carácter social de modo que las personas están dispuestas a hacer lo que tengan que hacer para prosperar económica y socialmente en una cultura determinada. El primer estudio de Fromm sobre empleados y trabajadores alemanes antes del surgimiento de Hitler mostró que, a pesar de suscribir una ideología democrática, la mayoría de ellos apoyaría a quienquiera que llegara al poder. El segundo estudio de campesinos de un pueblo mexicano generó resultados estadísticamente significativos que demostraron que el carácter social explicaba tanto la productividad como la psicopatología. Estos hallazgos se vieron confirmados por los resultados de estudios posteriores. El núcleo del carácter social está conformado por los tipos de caracteres psicoanalíticos descubiertos por Freud y modificados por Fromm. Esta teoría aprovecha los conocimientos de la economía, la sociología, la antropología y la historia. Maccoby ha proseguido la tarea, mostrando la importancia del concepto de carácter social para comprender el liderazgo y la motivación en el trabajo.

Funk and N. McLaughlin (Eds.), Towards a Human Science. The Relevance of Erich Fromm for Today, Giessen (Psychosozial-Verlag) 2015, pp. 39-57. N2 - Erich Fromm's scientific contributions were based on his theory of social character and the methods he developed to test it. Social character describes the deep-rooted emotional attitudes shared by people raised in the same culture. Family, schooling, work, and play shape the social character so that people want to do what they need to do to prosper economically and socially in a particular culture. Fromm's first study of German employees and workers before the rise of Hitler showed that despite subscribing to a democratic ideology the majority would support whoever gained power. The second study of Mexican peasant villagers provided statistically significant results demonstrating that social character explained both productivity and psychopathology. These findings were reinforced by subsequent studies. The nucleus of social character is the psychoanalytic character types discovered by Freud and modified by Fromm. This theory makes use of knowledge from economics, sociology, anthropology, and history. Maccoby has continued to show the relevance of the concept of social character in understanding leadership and motivation at work.

Funk (Ed.), The Clinical Erich Fromm. Personal Accounts and Papers on Therapeutic Technique, Amsterdam and New York (Rodopi Publisher), 2009, pp. 141-144. – Also available under the title Methods of Social Character Research in Erich Fromm<: In the 60s team of cultural anthropologists from Mexico and the United States headed by Erich Fromm conducted a socio-psychological survey, the findings of which were published in 1970 under the title >Social Character in a Mexican Village. A Sociopsychoanalytic Study<. The author of the present essay, who closely collaborated with Fromm on this field project, reports both on the data collection methods and evaluational practices used and on the findings reached by the survey. This co-production with Fromm can certainly lay claim to exemplary status for a large part of the Mexican rural population, pointing to a narrow link between the various manifestations of the social character of the villagers, the role of tradition in the culture and family respectively, and the nexus of economic relationships. This research project resulted in the practical conclusion that the situational realities of the most strongly disadvantaged group in the rural population – young people – needed to be improved by educational programs and agricultural projects, so as to stem the growing polarization between rich and poor among the villagers. N2 - >I metodi della ricerca sul carattere sociale secondo Erich Fromm<: Negli anni sessanta Erich Fromm condusse, con un'équipe di antropologi culturali, psicologi e pedagogisti provenienti dal Mssico e dagli Stati Uniti, una ricerca sociopsicologica, i cui risultati, col titolo Social Character in a Mexican Village. A Sociopsychoanalytic Study, vennero pubblicati nel 1970. L'autore del presente scritto, stretto collaboratore di Fromm in questo progetto, riferisce sui metodi di indagine e di valutazione e sui risultati della ricerca. Nello studio pubblicato assieme a Fromm, che può pretendere di avere validità esemplare per la maggioranza della popolazione rurale messicana, viene dimostrato uno stretto collegamento tra le diverse manifestazioni del carattere sociale degli abitanti del villaggio, la tradizione culturale e familiare e le condizioni economiche. Dal progetto di ricerca derivò la conseguenza pratica di cercare di migliorare le condizioni di vita del gruppo più svantaggiato della popolazione, soprattutto dei giovani, attraverso iniziative educative e progetti agricoli, allo scopo di opporsi ad un'ulteriore polarizzazione tra poveri e ricchi nella popolazione del villaggio. N2 - >El método de investigación del carácter social en Erich Fromm<: En los años 60 Fromm llevó a cabo junto con un equipo de antropólogos culturales, psicólogos y pedagogos mexicanos y estadounidenses, una investigación socialpsicológica, cuyos resultados fueron publicados en el año 1970 bajo el título: Sociopsicoanálisis del campesino mexicano. Estudio de la economía y la psicología de una communidad rural. El autor del presente trabajo, estrecho colaborador de Fromm, hace un relato acerca de los métodos de investigación, de la práctica evaluativa y de los resultados de dicha investigación. En este estudio, publicado conjuntamente con Fromm y que puede reivindicar una ejemplar validez para una gran parte del campesinado mexicano, se pone en claro la estrecha relación entre los diferentes rasgos del carácter social de los habitantes del pueblo, las correspondientes tradiciones culturales y familiares y las condiciones económicas. La consecuencia práctica del proyecto de investigación fue la de mejorar la situación de vida del grupo más afectado en el pueblo, sobre todo la de la juventud a través de formación y de proyectos agrícolas, con el fin de contrarrestar la profundización de la polarización entre pobres y ricos en la población del pueblo investigado.
